no paging file and restart computer. Has system properties pop up on start up. And pagefile.sys in drive C: still automatically manage paging file size.

My PC has RAM 8 GB. And I want to move pagefile.sys from drive C to drive E. Because my drive C almost full. So I set up custom size page file in drive C to minimum size or no page file and use "System manage size" in drive E. but my setting not effective in Windows 10 Pro this version. In previous versions of Windows 10 Pro, I can move page file from drive C to another drive.
Hey Cut. I'm Greg, an installation specialist and 9 year Windows MVP, here to help you.
That Custom size you're attempting is way too low. The minimum size should be 1.5 times the amount of RAM you have.
